Some people run a 4 minute mile

I run 4 miles in one hour.
This morning was a PB (personal best) for a run.  I ran four miles (or 6.4 km).
Paula coaxed me into this morning's running competition with her and Scab.   Scab was running 6 miles and Paula was running 4 miles and they were going to see who could make it back to the house quickest.  Paula told me to start on the 4 miles and then I could walk when I needed to.  But, when I told her I was going to walk (at about 2.5 miles) she said NO WAY!

So, I just did it.
Once again, it is all mental.  I NEVER would have thought I could do this.  Also this was the first time running with someone.  Paula had to run a bit slower to stay back with me but it was good - especially when my ipod died and she played her songs on speaker.

Dare I start to think about a 10k?
With the way my body feels this arvo?  I can not imagine it.

Thanks Pau!
